Why does ebay feedback rating only calculate percentage based on the past 12 months?

some sellers have lots of old negative feedback, clearly showing they are untrustworthy, but have 100% perfect score as they've sold low value items recently. I just think feedback scoring should consider every single trade, old and new.Why does ebay feedback rating only calculate percentage based on the past 12 months?
Ebay made those changes because they felt older feedback didn't reflect the current seller status accurately.Why does ebay feedback rating only calculate percentage based on the past 12 months?
It makes a lot more sense to have a rolling feedback percentage. If you are a seller

and someone leaves negative feedback that simply is unjustified it allows the sellers feedback

to return to 100% over a period of time.



This was much better than the old system where if some idiot left negative feedback

you were stuffed for life and could never get back to 100%.
